Viper

Viper aims to deliver the sound characteristics of legendary hardware synthesizers in a virtual format. We can call Viper a Virtual Performance synth, with a vast array of features like: multiple oscillator types with user waveforms, Sync, Frequency Modulation, Ring Modulation, unison up to 8 voices, filter saturation, filter routings, mod matrix, high quality effects, a powerful arpeggiator, and much more!

A lot of time and research has been invested to make the sound engine of Viper capable of delivering a wide array of sounds, everything from smooth, lush pads, huge basses, and powerful leads, typically associated with traditional analog synthesizers. This was achieved with careful coding, experimenting, analysing hardware synths, and using the ear to fine tune the controls. A constant randomization is also active in the synth to slightly alter its sound to mimic electronic components.

The engine is written in optimised code to use as little CPU consumption as possible, while maintaining a high quality sound engine, finding a good balance between the two. The synth automatically turns off any parts that are not used to further reduce CPU usage. Viper also has a smoothing algorithm for its controls to remove the ‘steppyness’ when it goes between values to give that extra polished sound.

Purchase:
This is a 32 & 64-bit VST for Windows only! All future updates are free!Please evaluate the demo thoroughly before purchasing!

Please, take it into consideration. As an example: the maximum LFO rate in Sylenth is 192.0 Hz. Nothing compared to the rate of 43.0 Hz in Viper.

Actually for me this is the only reason I haven’t bought this plugin yet, since I often use the LFO as an extra detune layer. Fast LFO speed can give cool effects on certain sounds, especially in electronic dance music.

Even though I respect the wish for increased LFO speed: please make this happen without attaching existing patches (f.e. by introducing a selector switch „low – high speed“ with default setting „low“ for existing patches).

I‘m using Viper live and created quite some patches embedded in racks I don‘t want to recreate. For live use stability of the situation is quite important.

Been a month since I’ve purchased this product and really happy with it! Certainly recommended! Are there any plans for future presets? I’m especially looking forward to more ambient driven ones like PD Ambient Pad. 🙂

Hello , after using almost every vst this one looks very interesting to me and sounds really good of what I’ve seen in the demos and versus on YouTube, even better than sylenth ! And of course it looks beautiful, I wanna ask the one’s who buy it will have free lifetime updates ? Thanks
